COMMENT
In our January issue, we celebrate our 35th Anniversary with a special focus on products Made in Arizona. We tell the stories behind hand-picked, regionally based goods, and turn the spotlight on the talented artists, designers and visionaries who create and market these world-class objects.
Building on our successful launch of this focus last year, our February edition features Leading Women. We profile influential women in design, fashion and the arts in our area, and share their viewpoints on myriad topics, including what they love about living in the Valley and what inspires them in work and life.
A perennial favorite, our March issue reveals the 2016 winners of the Phoenix Home & Garden Masters of the Southwest award. Top professionals in the Valley who have made lasting and significant contributions to the Southwest lifestyle are regaled inside this much-anticipated edition.
Ga rden & Outdoor Liv ing gets specia l attention in April. We share the latest trends in landscaping, pool and spa design, outdoor furnishings and lighting, while folding in simple, but special, fresh-air entertaining ideas, food and fun.
Our May issue zeroes in on Smart Homes. Technology makes our homes safer, and more convenient, connected and energy-efficient. It can also make our personal spaces more colorful, visually pleasing and unique. We look into the softer side of smart.
Celebrity Homes grace our June issue, adding a new category to our editorial mix. Super stars in sports, entertainment, the arts and media invite readers into their residences, which are as different and personal as the individuals and families who call them home.
A focus on Art in July shows how important and integrated visual beauty is to our lifestyle. Whether unique to the Valley or from the larger region, art in the home and in the garden encompasses a broad and diverse range of creative approaches, materials, scales and applications.
In August we focus on Color in the Southwest. Our climate, natural surroundings, light and culture impact the way we see, use and think of color. Certain hues are inherently at home in the desert; others are more difficult to employ. We help readers embrace color, both inside and out of their abodes.
Our Design Innovation theme in September reveals the 2016 ASID Design Excellence Awards winners in the residential categories; features sustainable architecture, interior design and landscapes; and shares creative advances of Southwest style.
While most of the rest of the country heads indoors for fall and winter gatherings, we enjoy Entertaining both inside and out. That is why this is such a timely focus for our October issue.
Our Dream Homes issue in November is a cornerstone of Phoenix Home & Garden. A favorite of readers and business partners alike, it and our accompanying Home Tour delights with breathtaking homes, gardens, pools and casitas from the Valley’s best design professionals.
Holiday Gatherings are central to December. With a wealth of inspiring food, fun and decorations, we offer personal stories sprinkled with just the right amount of seasonal cheer!

There’s a saying about Texas: It’s so dry the birds are building their nests out of barbed wire. While there
are times Arizonans would probably say
the same thing about their corner of the
Southwest, somehow the dry heat here
seems to be on the right side of tolerable
and the monsoon winds more predictable.
For Texans Jonathan Wheat and Chad
Woodland, Arizona was a breath of fresh
air, so when they had an opportunity to
move to Scottsdale, they jumped at the
chance. “I had visited several times, and I
was amazed at how beautiful the area was
with the desert and all the mountains,”
Chad recalls.The pair found a house in a secluded
gated community built into a canyon with
360-degree views of the mountains. Soon
after purchasing the home, they renovated
its interiors. “We married our Texas tra-
ditional style with the Scottsdale mod-
ern desert,” notes Jonathan, an interior
designer in Scottsdale.

Urban Development
Not everyone finds themselves living in an
older home when they move into a historic
neighborhood. Darrel Jackson and Jim
Lake got anything but when they purchased their
brand-new Tudor-style house in the Cheery Lynn
Historic District in Central Phoenix. “We were ini-
tially attracted to it because it had the ambience
and charm of an older home but the advantages of
newer construction,” says Darrel.
Originally beige and brown, the house got a fresh
look when the pair painted it a palo verde green
with purple trim, setting the stage for an updated
landscape. While Darrel and Jim had an overall
idea of what they were looking for, they agree that

TRUE SOUTHWEST
The magazine’s final page is a remind-er that sometimes it’s the little things that make living in Arizona so special.
136 PHGMAG.COM JULY 2015
TRUE SOUTHWEST
For many homeowners, one thing
encapsulates the perfect yard: a
lush, green lawn on which to play
and relax on hot summer nights. In the
scorching Southwest, verdant expanses
of grass are hard to come by, unless you’re
willing to endure high maintenance and
watering costs. And as much as we love
the natural desert landscape, sometimes
a little more than rocks, cacti and desert
f lora is desired, as was the case with the
owner of this North Scottsdale property.
Wanting a space where he and his wife
could practice their swings, and that fea-
tured a soft spot for their kids—and now
grandkids—to tumble, the homeowner
chose to install artificial turf in his back-
yard. The 2,300-square-foot lawn includes
a 950-square-foot putting green with six
holes, undulating mounds and a 10-by-
15-foot sand bunker. The green even fea-
tures a 10.5 Stimpmeter rating to match the
nearby Estancia Club, where the wife plays.
“When artificial grass first started
coming on the scene in Arizona, this
homeowner really believed in it,” says
Brad Rein, president of Phoenix-based
US Grass and Greens, which installed
the product at the home 14 years ago. Just
weeks ago, he and his crew updated the
grounds, replacing the old turf with a fresh
Bermuda-style faux lawn and adding
fringe around the putting green, a pathway
of flagstone pavers and a drainage system.
Today’s synthetic grass is softer and
more realistic than the shiny, hard plastic
turf of the past. Multicolored yarn (blades)
and brown-and-green thatch provide a
natural appearance, while its soft-to-the-
touch surface is perfect for those shoe-free
summer days. Even pets enjoy its cushiony
quality. (Artificial turf is used for dog runs
and outdoor spaces by shelters and rescue
groups throughout the Valley.)
In a sun-drenched environment where
everything gets hot, the new turf addresses
that concern with the advent of cool-fiber
technology, making it up to 20 percent
cooler than other products. Best of all, “It’s
always ready to use,” says the homeowner.
“I love the fact that my grandkids can go in
the backyard and have fun.”

A good deal of artists push boundaries, but some push a bit further, whether through their subject matter or
with the materials they use. In his compel-
ling series “Conversations with History,”
photographer David Emitt Adams uses
a complicated process to expose images
of iconic desert landscapes onto the
rusted litter he collects there. “As long
as people have been in the American
West, they have found its barren landscape to
be ideal for dumping garbage,” says the Yuma-born
artist. “The objects I use for my photos are rem-
nants from people who have settled in the region or
trash left by those who were just passing through.”
To get the pictures onto their atypical canvases,
Adams employs a wet-plate collodion process
pioneered in the 1850s. Used during the Civil War,
this photography technique requires glass or metal
to be coated in collodion, followed by a dip in silver
nitrate—rendering it light sensitive. While the pre-
treated surface is still wet, Adams exposes it to the
light within his camera to capture the images.
Open Dialogue
The complex procedure results in sepia-toned
pictures that appear as though they’re from another
era. This antiquated quality, Adams notes, pays
homage to the scenes captured by famed early
photographers, such as Timothy O’Sullivan, who
showed the world the magnificent beauty of the
West through the art of landscape photography.
“I’m using this historic process to speak of contem-
porary issues,” says Adams.

36 PHGMAG.COM SEPTEMBER 2015
QHow do you balance
style and function in
kitchen design?
AIn a kitchen, style is
not as important as
the functional layout. The
work triangle, which is the
line between the sink, range
and refrigerator, needs to
be between 12 and 26 feet
in order for the kitchen to
be efficient and to reduce
user fatigue. Also, you
need to include at least
one countertop next to the
refrigerator and one on each
side of the cooktop for easy
prep, cooking and cleanup.
QWhat are some of your
favorite design ideas
for this important room?
AI’m having fun mixing
cabinetry; try a two-
tone approach where upper
cupboards are different than
the lower ones or the island
cabinets contrast with wall-
mounted cupboards. It puts a
personal spin on the room. I
also like to mix up materials
and finishes. For instance, use
the same wood, but place a
matte finish next to a glossy
one. Another favorite we did
was a waterfall island with
3-D travertine tile. It has
great impact because it can be
seen from the front door.
QHow can readers
update their kitchens
inexpensively?
ABy changing up the
backsplash with glass,
metal or stone mosaic tile.
That area is only 14 to 18
inches high, so not much tile
is needed. Or, they can just
do a 6-inch band for even
more savings. Another idea
is to add or change hardware
on cabinets. Just like putting
on earrings, adding jewelry
to your kitchen can dress it
up instantly. Do more with
less, and use hardware only on
upper cabinets, which are the
ones that everyone sees.
QWhat Southwest
design elements work
well in kitchens?
ARustic woods, such
as hickory and alder
with their natural knots,
bring in a Southwestern
flavor, as do wrought iron or
appliances with oil-rubbed
finishes. Adding red and/
or turquoise to the color
scheme or choosing regional-
favorite copper for hardware
or a range hood also works.
Hardware that incorporates
coral, turquoise or jasper is
another touch to consider.

Q What are some tips for making a home’s interior look fresh and cool?A Making subtle alterations is a great way to mark the change of
season. Adding new accents—candles, pillows, place mats, floral arrangements—
freshens an atmosphere. For a beachy feel, consider linen or denim slipcovers and pillows. Eliminating clutter, or such items as table runners and bulky throws, also helps lighten up a space.
Q Are there any easy ways to cool down outdoor spaces?A This can be tough in the desert. For shade cover, vented patio umbrellas are a good choice, especially during the monsoon season. The vented flap in the fabric allows wind (and heat) to escape without toppling the
umbrella. To cool patios, consider adding exterior solar shades, which can be easily rolled up or down. Durable outdoor curtains are another option, offering instant style while filtering the sun.
Q How do you dress a bed for cool sleeping?A Start with sheets and bedding made from natural fibers. They absorb and wick moisture better than synthetic fibers. High
thread-count sheets can feel heavy, so consider something more lightweight for summer. This is also a good time to switch out comforters with coverlets. For something even lighter, and for a more
finished look, use a duvet cover (without the comforter inside) as a bed cover.
Q What interior design tricks provide a mental retreat from hot temps?A Color and fabric are the top two. Summer hues
range from vibrant to the beautiful colors of fruits and vegetables. Choose accents for the home in the same fun colors in which you might dress. When it comes to fabrics, think light—light in
color and light in weight—anything that will give the illusion of lighter, brighter, cooler. Sheer curtains are a great example.

Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, who is renowned for her haunting and emblematic style of art, used her paintings to capture the many facets of her passionate and tumultuous life. However, a recent discovery revealed another medium favored by the late artist: photography. Of the 6,500 images uncovered at her longtime home in Mexico City, 240 of the images have been specially selected for the exhibit “Frida Kahlo: Her Photos.” Showing at the Heard Museum from Oct. 31, to Feb. 8, 2016, pictures snapped by Frida and those closest to her offer a fresh, candid insight into the iconic painter’s world.

The online flower marketplace, BloomNation, now offers delivery services in the Greater Phoenix area. Described as the “Etsy of flowers,” the online platform works with more than 3,000 local florists throughout the U.S., cutting out the middleman to bring more business directly back to small shop owners while reducing markups. All images are of original designs uploaded by the participating florists. This allows businesses to offer unique bouquets filled with fresh seasonal blooms. The site also ensures that customers love their arrangements before they are sent, sending “BloomSnap” photos of flowers to be reviewed before delivery. “We offer 100 percent transparency between consumers and their local florists. They are able to compare reviews, prices and each florist’s unique style all in one place,” says co-founder David Daneshgar. “Most importantly, BloomNation gives local florists the freedom to sell their original creations and allows them to fall back in love with what they do.” (bloomnation.com)

Wild for Wildlife
Diversity in a sustainable landscape
attracts birds, bees and more
BY CATHY CROMELL PHOTOGRAPHY BY ART HOLEMAN
Like many first-timers to Sedona,
Ariz., Terry and Jack Drucker con-
tracted “red rock fever” upon seeing
the area’s mesmerizing geological forma-
tions. Visiting the Grand Canyon State
from Los Angeles, they had planned to
simply enjoy lunch in Sedona before con-
tinuing on their way. “Instead, we crossed
the street to a real estate agent’s office,
and she drove us around to view houses,”
Terry recalls.
Ultimately, they purchased a home on
a half-acre lot covered with cinder rocks.
“It had a flat front yard and entrance that
I could navigate in my wheelchair,” says
Terry. Over time, the couple modified the
backyard slope for accessibility, incorpo-
rating a terraced wheelchair ramp that
leads from the patio to a planting area
with chair-height raised beds.
The Druckers are passionate wildlife
gardeners. Undeterred by their initial
lack of experience with local f lora, they
dug right in. “My job is to point; Jack’s
job is to pick up the shovel,” says Terry
with a laugh. The division of labor works
beautifully, and the couple’s verdant and
sustainable landscape is now designated a
Certified Wildlife Habitat by the National
Wildlife Federation.
Their yard whirs with activity. Hum-
mingbirds f lit through a spritzer shower
set near their favorite agastache plants;
lizards rustle beneath protective orna-
mental grasses to forage for insects; and
flowering shrubs are abuzz with bees gath-
ering pollen and nectar.
The pair created this lively environment
by including essential elements of wild-
life habitat: food, water, cover and space
to rear young. And they maintain all of it
without the use of herbicides or pesticides.
PROVIDE FOOD AND WATER
“In our Los Angeles garden, I noticed dif-
ferent bee species foraged on different
salvia species,” says Terry. “It taught me
the value of plant diversity, even in a small
area.” In Sedona, she translated that les-
son into numerous plant options that offer
something for everyone.
Lining the entry walk beneath the arches
of the home’s facade are tropical plants
that Jack grows and which are more toler-
ant of the covered space’s shady exposure.
The remainder of the front yard holds
native and desert-adapted plants, includ-
ing a collection of old man cacti, which are
covered with fluffy white hairs that pro-
tect plant tissue from sunburn.

welcomes the change of pace that comes with painting lush,
vibrant gardens. He travels the world for inspiration and is especially

say they “love to live with his work and like the feeling that they
could walk right into the painting.” Pictured is “Positive Steps,” oil
on canvas, 36"H x 32"W. Taylor’s works are on exhibit in “Cool It,”

“Colors for Your Every Mood,” describes the red wine tone as a
highly varietal shade. “Marsala makes for an elegant, grounded statement color on its own or a strong accent for many other colors,” she notes. “Because of its burnished undertones, it is highly compatible with amber, golden yellows,
Adding Color at HomeSelecting the perfect hue can bring vitality
to your home and life
BY SHAWNDREA CORBIN
SAVVY SHOPPER
After a couple of years of rather muted colors dominating home fashion, things are getting more
interesting. There are lots of new options when it comes to choosing color for inte-riors. From the color du jour to pops of vivid hues, colors set the tone for your home and your mood.
TREND SETTERS
Trending hues range from dark, rich tones to light, pale tints. Marsala, Pantone’s 2015 Color of the Year, for instance, is a bold neutral with a flair for the dramatic.
Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute and author of
Pantone’s Color of the Year—Marsala—plays an important role in this Paradise Valley home designed by Jo Taulbee-Flittie. The rich, naturally warm hue is seen in pillows, art and the rug topping the center-stage bench, adding interest and character to a classic, neutral Southwest setting.

umber, greens like turquoise and teal, and vibrant blues.”
On the other end of the spectrum, Guilford Green, Benjamin Moore’s annual color pick, is a silvery hue that’s equally at home in cool modern spaces as it is in tra-ditional settings. Ellen O’Neill, creative director for Benjamin Moore, says the soft avocado tone connects nature with inte-rior spaces and pairs well with an abun-dance of more energetic color schemes.
Also noteworthy is a new collection of colors by Dunn-Edwards Paints called Back to the Ranch. Inspired by desert modern architecture and ranch-style

homes, the collection adds a Southwest touch to popular shades. Hues such as Taliesin Blue, High Noon and Santa Fe Sunrise take their cues from desert icons and the environment.
GETTING IT JUST RIGHT There are lots of ways to get good advice about choosing a unique color for your home. We asked Maria Killam, color expert and author, and Mary Meinz, Scottsdale-based interior designer and a 2015 Phoenix Home & Garden Masters of the Southwest award winner, for their insights on the subject.
LEFT: Cobalt blue has a cooling effect on rooms and is a favorite of Valley interior designers. Here, a rug in the royal color grounds a dining space overlooking the desert.
ABOVE: Hues from the Southwest are trending. These three new colors are from Dunn-Edwards Paints’ Back to the Ranch collection: High Noon, Santa Fe Sunset and Taliesin Blue.
Killam suggests introducing color into a neutral setting in small, medium and large graduations. “For example, small would be like a lamp, medium might be throw pillows, and large could be an area rug,” she explains. The technique makes the use of bolder colors look congruent and intentional, compared with, say, sev-eral bright cushions in an otherwise gray room, which “never looks quite right.”
The color expert also advises against picking a favorite color but instead rec-ommends finding ones that pair well with the rest of your home’s existing finishes, flooring, furniture and accessories.
